CONNECTION DIAGRAM

1. Connect a USB cable from your computer to the MPD26.

The unit will be powered through the USB connection.

Alternatively, if you do not wish to use a computer in your

setup or if you wish to power the MPD26 externally, please

plug in an optional Akai MP6-1 (6V-1A DC) power adapter.

2. If you would like to use an external sound module, connect a

5-pin MIDI cable from the MIDI OUT of the MPD26 to the

MIDI IN of the external device.

3. If you would like to use another MIDI controller in your setup, connect a 5-pin MIDI cable from the MIDI

OUT of the external MIDI device to the MIDI IN of the MPD26.

A NOTE ABOUT USING THE MPD2

WITH SOFTWARE:

1. Make sure that all external devices

are connected to the MPD26 and

that the MPD26 is connected to your

computer, using the included USB

cable, before opening any software

applications on your computer with

which you might want to use the

MPD26. If the unit is not plugged in

before, your software application

might not recognize the MPD26 as

an available device.

2. In your software application, you will

need to set the MPD26 as a default

MIDI input device. This is usually

done in the MIDI section of the

Preferences menu.

A NOTE ABOUT USING THE MPD2

WITH SOFTWARE:

The operation of the MIDI OUT port

changes depending on whether or not a

USB cable is connected to the MPD26.

• USB cable connected:

MIDI data from your computer is

passed to the MIDI OUT port. When a

USB cable is connected, you should

activate "MIDI echo" in your

sequencer if you want the MPD26 to

control another external device.

• USB cable not connected:

Whatever you play on the MPD26 is

sent to the MIDI OUT port.

Note: If you have another device

connected to the MPD26's MIDI IN

port, that device's MIDI information

will be ignored.
